The Supreme Court has issued a ban on the sale and registration of all diesel powered passenger vehicles with engine capacities exceeding 2000 cc in the Delhi-NCR region until March 31. This ruling is aimed at curbing the alarming pollution levels in Delhi and the NCR region. The Supreme Court has also asked all the private cabs operating in the city to convert to Compressed Natural Gas or CNG by March 1, 2016. This shocking move is followed by the National Green Tribunal’s interim order from earlier this week, which bans the registration of diesel powered vehicles until the next hearing on January 6, apart from non-renewal of registration for diesel vehicles older than 10 years. The tribunal had also urged central and state government to stop buying diesel cars in Delhi-NCR. In addition, the SC has also ruled that all trucks and light commercial vehicles not bound for Delhi will not be allowed to enter the capital through National Highways 1 and 8. The trucks bound for Delhi will have to shell out the hiked environment compensation charge (ECC), which now stands at Rs 2,600 for big trucks and Rs 1,400 for light commercial vehicles, double the ECC that had been specified by the court earlier. The ban will seriously affect sales of home-owner vehicle manufacturers such as Mahindra & Mahindra, Tata Motors, as well as premium manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Jaguar and BMW, which have products with diesel engines over the 2,000cc capacity. All of their losses are Maruti Suzuki’s gain, whose portfolio doesn’t include a single diesel engine that exceeds 2,000 cc.
